The Community Foundation of Northern Nevada accepts proposals for grants from the Dream Tags Charitable Fund, focusing on wildlife conservation within Nevada. This fund is strategically aligned with the foundation's mission to engage Nevadans in wildlife conservation by restoring resilience in at-risk Nevada habitats through collaborative projects. The overarching goal is to support the preservation, protection, management, or restoration of big game, other wildlife, and their habitat, demonstrating a clear commitment to environmental stewardship and sustained ecological impact. The target beneficiaries of the Dream Tags Charitable Fund are 501(c)(3) nonprofit agencies, nonprofit educational institutions, and governmental entities that conduct projects exclusively in Nevada. The fund aims to impact Nevada's wildlife and habitats directly, fostering an engaged community in conservation efforts. The impact goals are centered around creating measurable improvements in habitat health and wildlife populations, ensuring that donated funds contribute to tangible, long-term benefits for the state's natural resources. The fund prioritizes projects that demonstrate measurable impact in accordance with its purpose, emphasizing on-the-ground habitat improvements. Key focuses include the preservation, protection, management, or restoration of Nevada's big game and wildlife habitat. The foundation seeks solutions to known problems identified through past research and monitoring, and encourages partnerships to leverage funds and achieve larger outcomes. This strategic approach ensures that resources are directed towards effective and collaborative conservation initiatives. Expected outcomes include restored resilience in at-risk habitats, improved conditions for big game and other wildlife, and increased engagement of Nevadans in conservation. Measurable results are crucial, with proposals required to demonstrate tangible impacts. Grantees are expected to provide quarterly reports detailing activities and project accomplishments, and projects are evaluated on criteria such as measurable outcomes, monitoring and reporting effectiveness, and consistency with the fund's operational guidelines. The foundation's theory of change posits that by strategically funding collaborative, measurable projects, they can achieve sustained positive impact on Nevada's wildlife and habitats, ultimately contributing to a healthier ecosystem.
